Message: [QUOTE="Jack Hall, post: 2092301, member: 3962"] He was classy in that presser (other than the arrogance inferred in his rivalry comment) and imo he is the best college coach of my adult lifetime. And i get it he is buds with JB. But i will never understand the disconnect with how he is treated on this board vs how coach Knight is treated. Imo they are cut out of the same cloth as Knight was clearly Ks mentor and by no coincidence they were both two of the best ever. I suspect (understatement) K was far better at massaging his reputation than Knight, but my own feeling is Knight (altho made many sizable mistakes) as the evil ogre was slightly overblown and likewise K portraying himself and Duke as the untouchable/unattainable Saint was also overblown. Ie that huge gaping hole in public perception between the two didnt truly reflect reality. But thats just me [/QUOTE]
